jurov: well if I have to explore context what a word mean, well, then it is C++ too
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: i did say many times that a canonical representation of whatever is, rightfully, sexpr
mircea_popescu: jurov the later is actually part of the graph. i can not meaningfully search for a motherfucking dot.
mircea_popescu: which yes, i sometimes watch.
mircea_popescu: i have an ascii art plugin for mah video player ?
ascii_butugychag: for some reason i wonder if mircea_popescu has watched 'ascii starwars'
mircea_popescu: that i can see the complete meaning in plain text whenever i opt to not run whatever program.
mircea_popescu: not even. it's just that i'm so allergic to "dynamically linked" bullshit that i barf at the very notion of a computing system that might need "expansions" because people don't want ot learn to read and write
ascii_butugychag: with the difference that i don't have to catch stroustrup and hang him upside-down and soldering iron to get new mathematical notation when i need it...
ascii_butugychag: just that i operate using an idea of meaning that lets me make things happen, occasionally, rather than having to stay in bed because we have not actually discovered REAL MEANING yet
ascii_butugychag: i am keeping my legs AND my head tyvm
jurov: well, i thought thread concerns spreading of information and definition of alphabet
trinque: as for music I prefer a tracker, or yes, writing code to produce it
trinque: god that's another motherfucking terrible notation and I play music!
ascii_butugychat: then i am trying to describe 'why musical staff' to deaf folk
trinque: and you are missing the part where I'm asking a damn question.
trinque: no, I have not
trinque: if it is up to you entirely to invent the notation, I don't know why one would go to one with non-obvious evaluation order and all manner of other problems I thought lisp solved
trinque: your example is that "I was able to wrangle someone else's nonsense with lisp" and I agree it does that rather well.
ascii_butugychat: but i ~was~ able to redefine square brackets, ?, ^, etc
ascii_butugychat: a proper language lets you make operators, as in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=103 where i solved mr mold's puzzle by turning a running cl into his language
ascii_butugychat: (how to write integral? what if i want the stick longer? do i have to spend all day fitting the bloody thing to a grid?)
jurov: also, i can't imagine taking notes on math analysis lectures using "plaintext" only ☟︎
ascii_butugychat: 'i am the lorax, who speaks for the trees!111' (tm) (r)
ascii_butugychat: they are while i am.
ascii_butugychat: (but not that i do not earn my bread in front of a classroom, also)
ascii_butugychat: i am NOT interested in dealing with this in motherfuking VERBAL form

BingoBoingo: Mebbe I'm wrong
BingoBoingo: I dun remember
BingoBoingo: CowManure: I am unsure
CowManure: I'm just curious based on the comments in the bet i posted
shinohai: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1318519.msg13531667#msg13531667 <<< In which I am called an "MPFag" on bitcointalk, whatever that means.
user1675_: i bet you hired an indian on craigslist to build it for you
user1675_: i would like to take a fraction of my time to talk about

ascii_butugychag: i've something that beats mircea_popescu's huqsvarna motorcycle
ascii_butugychag: (e.g., some of the police choppers where i live. i was shown one up close at a public expo, tiny thing)
mircea_popescu: yeah... i... have seen.
punkman: I kinda liked this one, also lands on water http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-01-2016#1361483 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i briefly considered a two seater thing a few years back
mircea_popescu: they can have a kennel for all i care.
mircea_popescu: just as long as i get my death certificates.
mircea_popescu: i got promoted ?
punkman: "a flurry of various machine making machines." "houses don't need a fucking pool, they need a runway." << I love futuristic-mp
mircea_popescu: i want to have more landing locations than existing aircraft.
mircea_popescu: fuck boeing nevertheless. i do not wish to even hear of bullshit "airport" to have "tsa" at.
mircea_popescu: ahaha I~~~ am the one smoking something strong ?
mircea_popescu: i'd have much preferred it if that quote read "had we done what mp said we shoudl do the first time he called us idiots back in 2013, we'd now be in a position where we could almost pass for human"
mircea_popescu: i dunno, by now they're self-parodic.
mircea_popescu: "hey, maybe i'm not really fat!!1"
mircea_popescu: "Now one of the things about Lisp, and I've seen it before, is that Lisp is a real magnet for this kind of mind. " check it out, he ... carefully put in the hook for language specific http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=11-01-2016#1366854 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: da fuck is embarassing about this ? i say "i'm sorry, who are you again ?" a dozen times a day, if it's a day i mostly sleep.
mircea_popescu: i'm sorry... what ?
adlai: meh, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_face is a better tl;dr i guess.
mircea_popescu: im not sure i understand the question
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 00:40:01; mircea_popescu: i think i'ma just use adlai to denote lazy from now on.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> anyway, if the toomims take thgeir fake hashpower to this thing it'll be a perfect exit for that set of scammers and good riddance. << I alway thought the Toomims hashpower was real? Who claiming fake hashpower would claim so little?
ascii_butugychag: when i issue a tx, 50% chance it never gets in a block
ascii_butugychag: i mean, the present situation is icky
mircea_popescu: yes but i'm not a bloodthirsty orc. not just yet at any rate.
mircea_popescu: eh, i dunno if you recall the discussion at the time, but anyway. i am not really THAT against that soft fork, because like it or not this situation with ambiguous s-ness is not so good.
mircea_popescu: i don't see who minds this ? go right ahead!
mircea_popescu: meanwhile i will continue to honor payments on the actual bitcoin chain.
mircea_popescu: i have no fucking idea what they imagine this will do. suppose 90% of the miners move over. i will not honor any of their payments, not on mpex, not on bitbet, not anywhere else. that's the whole market.
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 17:13:25; psztorc: I asked for help / support / feedback ... got zero.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-01-2016#1368177 << supposedly there is a chain. i never personally checked. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I need to know for the jokes!!!
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 17:05:10; psztorc: I bring it up because it is in contrast to XT, which no one really liked.
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 16:57:00; thestringpuller: from my studies, I thought that jazz musicians routinely passed down songs via audition rather than sight (via score).
mircea_popescu: i actually broke a bone flute on a flesh ass.
psztorc: I will be lurking about, wrt 2 MB blocksize fork.
mats: i think i would enjoy it, at least a little bit
mats: i wonder sometimes what prison would be like
psztorc: Instead, I'm just going to finish my own project.
ascii_butugychag: mats: i hear they give priority to applicants who give a shit
psztorc: adlai: Well, who would I ask?
adlai: psztorc: have you considered asking fork proponents to help build such a market? i think the antifork crowd are more content to take a more patient role in this game of chicken, because the "burden of forking" is on the other camp
psztorc: So I just shelved it...unlike TC/HM, the watered-down version required some community buy-in, so I knew it was DoA.
psztorc: I asked for help / support / feedback ... got zero. ☟︎
psztorc: I know, that's why I proposed rushing out a very very simple version which outright relied on multisig for the 2-way-peg and the price-oracle input.
adlai: ascii_butugychag: you can run bitcoind and forkcoind, and automate https://github.com/TierNolan/bips/blob/bip4x/bip-atom.mediawiki between them... if only anybody wrote the glue for this. for some reason I thought psztorc was working on this, but can't find the github repo
psztorc: The plan was to rush out a tiny version of Truthcoin/Hivemind , now I'm just going to wait for the full thing to be done.
psztorc: I bring it up because it is in contrast to XT, which no one really liked. ☟︎
psztorc: I am aware of the relative lack-of-influence of miners in this case.
adlai: "hard limit" = MAX_BLOCK_SIZE === "I don't accept a block larger than X", soft limit = relevant only for miners === "I produce blocks up to X"
adlai: psztorc: i'm more interested in measuring the seismic trembles as miners agonize over raising their soft limit past 1MB... ie, being the guinea pig that expends their own hashpower-hours to verify whether or not it's all a fluffy bluff
BingoBoingo: <psztorc> So, "bitcoin classic", with a 2 MB blocksize limit, is likely to have >60% hashrate at this time tomorrow. << Where does this spz come from? I just woke up.
thestringpuller: i can confirm from my experience with kerbal space program, it's much more dramatic reentering the atmospher than leaving it
psztorc: I just expected something a little more dramatic, I guess.
psztorc: I've read it, of course.
thestringpuller: from my studies, I thought that jazz musicians routinely passed down songs via audition rather than sight (via score). ☟︎
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> in case its not clear BingoBoingo i'm a fan of your work << ty ben_vulpes
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 13:58:38; mircea_popescu: i have absolutely no idea what these bundy dudes must be thinking to elevate the usg charade into relevancy through participating. but then again... can't trust one to think that's not got a pubkey, can you.
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag i direct my concers by frowning.
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 13:33:54; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-01-2016#1367845 << i don't hate the unicode folk. i hate the notion that we'd include all this in the first place. once we decide "we need it", i'd actually prefer unicode to any adhoc herpderping.
ascii_butugychag: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-01-2016#1368044 << i would much like to attend a concert hall directed by mircea_popescu. understand, just to watch the faces of the musicians when they open their scores and discover, instead of musical notation, 'do re mi.....' x 100,001 !1 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: am i missing something ?
mircea_popescu: i have absolutely no idea what these bundy dudes must be thinking to elevate the usg charade into relevancy through participating. but then again... can't trust one to think that's not got a pubkey, can you. ☟︎

Big applause. #Oregonstandoff111 retweets 118 likes " "Amanda Peacher @amandapeacher · 11h11 hours ago Packed house for tonight's community mtg in Burns about the #Oregonstandoff.
